REDS AGREE XABI DEAL

Liverpool Football Club this evening confirmed they had reached agreement for the sale of Xabi Alonso to Real Madrid, subject only to a medical.The terms of the deal will remain confidential and undisclosed.

Re: Xabi Alonso (Liverpool -> Real Madrid)

Business wise Rafa has played a blinder 30m raising to a possible 34m for a player who when we bought him only cost us 10m. That is a 20m profit rising to 24m depending on his performances and Real tried to buy him for 25m but Rafa was having none of it and held out for the full price well done Rafa a cracking bit of business now we need to look forward and spend the cash on quality who can help us to number 19 exciting times ahead.

Re: Xabi Alonso (Liverpool -> Real Madrid)

Oh well at least it's done and we can get on with it. Now we look forward to spending the cash. I'm sure we'll sign someone new in the next couple of days. Hopefully the signing brings a massive smile to our faces.

All the best Xabi (not f**king Xavi as I was reading in the 100+page thread)....wish you personal success but never against us.

Re: Xabi Alonso (Liverpool -> Real Madrid)

Imagine growing up in Liverpool as a red fan all your life, but playing for Man City. At 25 being asked to play for Real Madrid. Brilliant , very flattering move. Then three years on, Liverpool come in for you, the move of your dreams. Do you take it? of course you do. We may miss Xabi, we may not. That will depend on the astute work of Rafa with the transfer funds. All in all, Xabi brought me lots of great moments watching him play. Good luck to him with Real, as long as they don't beat us should we meet in the C.L. Thanks for the memories Xabi. Great player, forthright honest man. Lets move on....

Re: Xabi Alonso (Liverpool -> Real Madrid)

I wish him good luck but I'm not that sad to see him go to be honest, his desire and passion to play for us had gone and was angling for this move for a while and I don't know about others but I only want to see players playing for Liverpool if their heart and soul is in it.

However, he was one of Rafa's best buys and will be a shame to not see him score from his own half for us next season

Re: Xabi Alonso (Liverpool -> Real Madrid)

Thanks for your services Xabi. I know you still have alot to offer us but you won't be appreciated as much in Madrid as you were at Liverpool. You are one of my very much loved players and I'm really sad to see you leave the team I love but IMO, you had made up your mind long ago. Still, I rather have a player whose heart and mind isn't in the team he's playing for.

Well, if we can get Aquilani and Silva, it wouldn't be such a bad thing.

Re: Xabi Alonso (Liverpool -> Real Madrid)

Thanks for the great memories Xabi I hope you have fun at Madrid with Kaka and Ronaldo and I hope your this is what you really wanted . Not matter who goes Liverpool will always have our strength and we will carry on .

Re: Xabi Alonso (Liverpool -> Real Madrid)

Im not going to send him my best. Because i want Madrid to fail miserably this season, and unfortunately being a madrid player you come under that bracket. Hope you at least get in the side, and the World Cup, as you deserve that for your performances. But at Madrid, couldn't give a f**k.
